• A. 6,384
• B. 3,192
• C. 22,800
• D. 29,184

Answer 1

The correct option is D 29,184

Printed price of washing machine =₹24,000

Discount on washing machine
= 5% of ₹24,000
= $\frac{5}{100}\times 24000$
= ₹1200

Taxable value of washing machine
= ₹24,000 - ₹1,200
= ₹22,800

Rate of GST =28%

∴ Amount of GST on the washing machine
= $\frac{28}{100}\times 22800$
= ₹6,384

∴ Purchase price of washing machine = Taxable value of washing machine + Amount of GST on washing machine

= ₹22,800 + ₹6,384
= ₹29,184

Hence, Purchase price of washing machine is ₹29,184.
